Dorita Fairlie Bruce (1885–1970) was a British children's author who wrote the popular ''Dimsie'' series of books published between 1921 and 1941. Her books were second in popularity only to Angela Brazil's during the 1920s and 1930s. She was a pioneer in creating series of books which followed a group of girls throughout their schooldays and even beyond. Her ''Dimsie'', ''Nancy'' and ''Springdale'' series all follow this pattern, which was widely imitated.() The Colmskirk sequence, a set of nine novels for young adults, widened her scope, dealing with a group of families in the Scottish countryside around Largs from the seventeenth century to the twentieth. () Bruce was involved with the Girls' Guildry for over thirty years. She contributed factual articles to the ''Lamp of the Girls' Guildry'' magazine and Girls' Guildry plays a role in her ''Nancy'' series and gets a mention in her Dimsie series. The Girls' Guildry later merged with similar organisations to become the Girls' Brigade. ==Biography== + 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Dorita Fairlie Bruce」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
